My wife and I are living in an apartment as our main place of residence for about 18 months. We have purchased of plan and that property is nearly completed.

If we were to rent out our current apartment and sell in a couple of years would we be liable to CGT?

We also purchased an investment property in 2017. Our youngest son has lived in the property since that time except for a very short period of time and we would like to gift the property to him. We paid $256,000 for the property and it is now valued at approximately $450,000. There is still a mortgage of $130,000. What would be the tax implications?

Yes, unless you want to pay CGT on the new property.


Best to go to a local tax agent experienced with property
